[MCR] Rogers Pass - Asulkan Brook

Up the Asulkan drainage in Rogers Pass today.  There is about 80-100 cm of total snow depth at the top of the tree triangle.  Ski quality was good today; open alpine slopes had about 20cm of light snow on top of a firm surface.  Rough skiing below treeline with alot of stuff to get around and be wary of (rocks, running water, stumps, alder, etc) - but once you get into the main part of the tree triangle, its good from there up.  No new avalanches observed. Stayed calm and about -10 all day. Nice layer of surface hoar growing on top.
